To be fair, it's basically impossible to evolve something like a propeller in nature, and they do work pretty well for providing 1-dimensional thrust while also being relatively easy to design and construct. Evolution is very good at optimizing a system, but it doesn't create *the* optimal system. Fitness has to improve or at least stay roughly the same in an evolutionary system, so it gets stuck in local-maxima in the absence of environmental changes. It's the same as the classic "why haven't animals have evolved wheels" question. I could imagine a hybrid design being ideal instead, with a rear propeller for main thrust and fin-like structures on the sides, top, or bottom for maneuverability. There's no reason we can't have the best of all worlds.
I vaguely recall that nature has evolved a universal type joint which rotates under power at the microscopic level. Sorry that I can't remember more, I do know that when I read about it I was stunned at what I thought was impossible. All the best.

None of these types of fish "propulsion" is as effective as ship screw. It's the same case like by planes. Jet turbines are similar to ship screws. There is only one rotational movement along longitudal axis. No cyclic acceleration and decelation like by fish's fins. The only parts that wear out are bearings. Easy to maintain, easy to construct, lightweight. I do not see big reason of using of fish-like propulsion.

I think this wouldn't really work out for cargo shipping. The tonnage involved skews the numbers horribly to the point where you'd have to use incredibly large fins or tails, and you'd need to energy to move such appendages also. To say nothing of the trouble maintaining a moveable surface in a decisively antagonistic environment, the bearings, joints and what have you would clog and jam with all sorts of corrosive detritus or driftwood. This all assumes that you're not covering said surfaces with a layer or film of permeable high-resistance textile material or something along those lines. Even then, you'd have to maintain that layer, which would run up costs high enough that I doubt many shipping companies would be interested unless coerced by incredibly hostile legislature. And unfortunately the legislature will always rule in favour of the capitalist. He can stop production and logistics at will after all.
In my opinion sarcopterygii is a clade defined by a common ancestor not a Paraphyly without tetrapods. A guy made some toxic comments so I had to clarify.
A robot battery powered fish if designed properly could be able to recharge its own batteries by anchoring itself into a water current by its nose/mouth /rod connected to internal motor/generator while body spins around it.😮 Just a thought, putting it out there. 😮

Nature deals with matter at a 3d-spatial level in which every point (or part) of internal volume within the animal's body works in tandem with what we recognize as the external form of the fish, or rather, the outside surface of the fish's body, which is essentially a 2-D manifold embedded in what we consider a 3-D volume. The human mind deals with matter based largely on flat diagrams, or volumetric diagrams that have been unrolled onto a flat plane for visual identification. Because we only consider the outside form, all the gears and pullies and even the fixed components within the body of a robotic fish, while serving the function of producing a thrust by the flapping of a tail or fin, don't work together with the external form of the robot fish. For natural fish, both inside and outside bodily forms were developed in tandem over long-time. In a very real sense, the functional internal components of the robot fish conflict in many unforeseeable ways with the functions of the external form, such as flapping. The components of a fish's body will be even more difficult to replicate in a robot the more the living fish's center of gravity and general movement are informed by the *liquid* components of the fish's body, such as blood circulating with the fish's body. The physical characteristics of these innards are such that they include multiples states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) and mediate between them with varying degrees of softness and hardness within the fish's body (think "goo"). I imagine this could be overcome with math and AI basically, since these mediums are so abstract, and since their abstractness permits them to offer a vision of all 3-d Spatial points in tandem, as opposed to the limited manner in which human perception isolates shapes.
Alongside computational models, there is also trial and error, the evolutionary process occurring over deep-time. This must in some way be reflected in the scientific method, in which it is possible to simply produce many, many variations of a form and test them out to see which ones are best. The problem with this is you could end up stuck in a local maximum of functionality and never reach the global maximum of whichever function is desired, forward locomotion being the function in question here with the robot fish. Neural nets could be capable, alongside other black-box tools, of accounting for this wholistic interpretation of functionality, by producing and testing models much faster than what we see over deep time with the evolution of various fish.
My guess is that we're going to see robotic fish like these used for reconnaissance (maybe, remote radio connection will be difficult) and as bombs (sea drones) in the Ukraine war before the end of next year (2024).
